"If you dare ruin the Clark family, I'll destroy you again."Again? What did that mean?Renee looked at Linda suspiciously. She hadn't immediately worried about Travis, but about the Clark family.Renee was about to speak when Travis suddenly sat up in bed, interrupting."Renee, enough. Stop arguing.""Mom, Renee did help me. Don't talk to her like that. Please wait for me outside."Travis gently pushed Linda.Linda shot Renee a warning glare before leaving the room.Finally, only Renee and Travis remained.Travis reached out to Renee, but she dodged him.She said coldly, "Don't you have anything to explain to me?"Travis's face darkened as he lowered his hand. "Renee, you don't understand.""I don't understand? So you can just use me? I treated you like a friend and family. I cared about your kindness to me. I worried about you and your mother being mistreated. Is this how you repay me?" Renee demanded."I don't want to be your friend or family!"With that, Travis sudd

She had always thought Carl didn't want to see her and her daughter. To protect Sarah from any backlash, she deliberately avoided Carl, taking Sarah with her.As Renee was lost in thought, a sudden bolt of lightning illuminated the sky, casting an ominous shadow over the family library. The following thunderclap felt like it tore a hole in her heart.She could almost feel her blood surging, accompanied by an uncontrollable panic.When Renee came to her senses, Susanne had brought her back to the courtyard and was drying her hair with a towel."Go to your room and change your clothes quickly."As soon as Susanne said it, she remembered that Renee had moved out. To reassure Michael, the family patriarch, Renee hadn't left a single item behind.Susanne's eyes reddened. She pressed her lips together and said, "I'll get you some of my clothes."Renee nodded numbly.After changing, Susanne looked at Renee's pale face and said worriedly, "I'll make you some tea."Renee quickly grabbe

As they entered the room, Carl silently lay face down on the bed.Dr. Percy lifted the coat covering Carl's back and gasped. Despite the security chief's restraint, the first three lashes had clearly been delivered with considerable force. The water-soaked whip had left particularly nasty welts, as if barbed wire had torn into the flesh."Good God, why did they beat you again? Last time it was because of Renee and you..." Dr. Percy trailed off, suddenly realizing something. "Is it her again? Is she your nemesis or something?"Carl shot him an icy glare.Even Patrick coughed twice nearby, clearly disapproving of Chris's comment about Renee.Dr. Percy awkwardly fell silent and put on gloves to clean the wounds. Finally, he sighed with relief. "Apart from three deeper cuts, the rest aren't serious. Whoever hit you managed to avoid vital areas. You'll heal with some rest."He then took out some anti-inflammatory pills from his bag and handed them to Carl.As Carl sat up to take the

Carl took a drag from his cigarette, the smoke swirling around his face like a mask, hiding his expression.In the tense silence, Renee's heart skipped a beat. She clenched her fists, willing herself to stay calm.Carl stubbed out his cigarette. "Let her go," he said flatly.Renee looked away, watching raindrops slide down a nearby leaf. "Uncle Carl, thanks for your help, but I won't be needing it anymore," she said coldly.His hand froze mid-motion as he watched her retreating figure.A phone ring broke the silence. It was Ms. Johnson."Still alive?" she asked."Barely," Carl replied dryly.She chuckled. "You called it. Someone made their move, and now your dear niece must be worried sick, huh?”Carl pinched the bridge of his nose. "She just cut ties with me."Ms. Johnson burst out laughing. "Well, why don't you come over and let me nurse you back to health?""I'll pass.""Ha!" she scoffed. "You wish you could, but she's already bailed! That's what you get for being all ta

Renee felt uneasy under Carl's intense gaze and instinctively looked up at him.His eyes swept over her face, finally resting on her lips. He could still feel the warmth from their earlier kiss, and his throat tightened."Your mouth only behaves in one situation," he said, his breath warm against her skin.Renee instantly understood his meaning. But suddenly, a realization struck her, and anger flashed in her eyes."You tricked me! You're not drunk at all. There's no alcohol on your breath.""You're catching on, but... it's too late," Carl said, glancing down at where he stood.Renee realized he had already entered her apartment while she was distracted. By the time she came to her senses, he had calmly closed the door behind him.There was no way to make him leave now."You jerk!" Renee grabbed the keys from the cabinet and threw them at him, hitting his shoulder.Carl winced, his shoulder visibly sinking as if instinctively protecting itself.Alarmed, Renee immediately stoo
